This was used by ldisc to communicate back to the front end that a key
had been pressed (or rather, that a keypress had caused a nonzero
amount of session input data). Its only nontrivial implementation was
in gtkwin.c, which used that notification to implement the Unix GUI's
"close window on keypress, if the session was already over" policy.
(Which in turn is Unix-specific, because the rationale is that
sometimes X servers don't have a functioning window manager, so it's
useful to have a way of telling any application to close without using
WM-provided facilities like a close button.)
But gtkwin.c doesn't need to be told by the ldisc that a keypress
happened - it's the one _sending_ those keypresses to ldisc in the
first place! So I've thrown away the three stub implementations of
frontend_keypress, removed the call to it in ldisc.c, and replaced it
with calls in gtkwin.c at all the points during keypress handling
that call ldisc_send.
A visible effect is that pterm's close-on-keypress behaviour will now
only trigger on an actual (input-generating) _keypress_, and not on
other input generation such as a paste action. I think that's an
improvement.
